Hottest TV Actors of 2013

Best of 2013: Our Biggest TV Character Crushes

They may not be real people, but TV characters can be quite fetching. This year, we were crushing on a number of gentlemen from the small screen, including doctors, vampires, admen, and lawmen, and one of our biggest crushes is from a fairy tale. Let's dive in: here are the fictional suitors we would totally date in real life.

Despite the fact that Klaus is clearly out of his mind, he's undeniably sexy. Yes, he's daggered his siblings without hesitation multiple times, but hey, families can be really annoying. His unabashed desire to take over New Orleans just shows the guy has ambition, and really, who wouldn't want to be standing next to this guy as the queen of NOLA?

James Wolk has gone from mysterious adman Bob Benson on Mad Men to the charming, funny, and still handsome adman Zach Cropper on The Crazy Ones. It's clear why Simon (Robin Williams) favors Zach; aside from being really talented at his job, he's straight-up suave.

Danny is getting less and less curmudgeonly and seems to be getting cuter the more he softens toward Mindy. He's a sweet, successful doctor, but our favorite thing about him lately are those sweet dance moves he just picked up for Mindy. Does it get any better?!

Jon Snow may "know nothing," but we sure know something about him: he's adorable. Jon has always been one of the most crushable guys on Game of Thrones, and he gets his first chance at romance in season three — which means we saw an even sexier side to him. Though his girlfriend, Ygritte, leaves him with an arrow in his leg, I'd be happy to jump in and nurse him back to health.

It takes a lot to make a guy with a hook for a hand crush-worthy, but Captain Hook makes it work. As much as I'd love to see him in anything other than his low-cut leather coat uniform week after week, he still makes his signature look work with his charming smile, witty one-liners, and just the tiniest hint of danger. Watching him try to woo Emma this season has only added to his appeal.

First of all, yes, Sam is in high school, but Chord Overstreet is 24 years old, which makes this OK. Sam looks terrific without a shirt on, as evidenced by his modeling photo shoot this year, but he's also sympathetic, intelligent (in his own way), and supertalented. He can sing, dance, and do hilarious impressions! Have you heard his Sean Connery? Seriously, every impression is pure gold.

Andy Samberg gave us plenty of characters on Saturday Night Live but none as crush-worthy as Detective Jake Peralta. He's got a terrific sense of humor, and despite his faults, he's actually a really skilled detective. Think of all the brilliant long cons he's played on Captain Ray Holt (Andre Braugher) — he's a twisted genius.

The guys of The League are pretty crass, but they also seem like a great time, and our favorite has to be Pete (Mark Duplass). Perennially single Pete may be particular, but he's also pretty adorable. We'd love to spend Sundays watching football with him and his friends.

This hot Francis is far from Francis II, the sickly young boy he was in history books, and would you expect anything less from The CW? But Toby Regbo has made the prince of France a disarming, romantic young man whose appeal is totally obvious. History may have gone a different way, but we are totally rooting for Mary and Francis.

We all know that Carrie ends up with Big, but it's still fun (and sometimes heartbreaking) to see her on-again, off-again relationship with Sebastian. We totally get why she can't get him out of her head — he's the supercool guy in high school who does his own thing. High school us would crush on him too.

Damon may be dead, but as any fan of The Vampire Diaries knows, he's also dead sexy. Who can resist those piercing eyes and that incredible bone structure? He's protective, he's slightly impulsive — OK, very impulsive — and he has just just the right about of edge. It's no wonder Elena spent her whole Summer between the sheets with him.
